This plan comes from a group of drawings and plans created by architects and engineers responsible for the design of Australian lighthouses and for associated infrastructure including the lights themselves, the residences of the lightkeepers, their store rooms and watch houses.
Smoky Cape Lighthouse, first proposed in 1886, was built to ensure the safety of the increasing coastal traffic on the New South Wales northern seaboard. The light was completed and first exhibited in 1891. It is located on the New South Wales mid-north coast, east of the town of South West Rocks, and within the Hat Head National Park.
